Winter did a number on your yard. With spring around the corner and weeds already popping up, it’s time to whip it back into shape. From weed killer and lawn feed to leaf blowers, rakes and tillers, these tools can help you clean up fast — long before summer hits.
Chainsaws: $199
If you’re new to chainsaws, the compact, one-handed Worx model easily and quickly breaks down small and medium branches — no cords required. If you need even more power, Kobalt’s battery-powered chainsaw delivers serious cutting strength with up to two and a half hours of runtime.
For thick limbs and fallen trunks, though, go with gas. The lightweight Craftsman model with a low-kickback bar powers through tough hardwood with ease.
Lawn mowers: $529 (12% off)
Original price: $599
An EGO POWER mower delivers up to 50 minutes of runtime, which is pretty strong for a battery-powered option. It’s quieter than gas, cord-free and requires less maintenance. For smaller yards, a lightweight Kobalt battery-powered mower is easy to maneuver and simple to push. Prefer gas? The Craftsman 21-inch mower powers through thick grass without slowing down.
String trimmers: $148.11
A solid trimmer keeps weeds and edges under control fast. This battery-powered pick from Craftsman runs up to 25 minutes per charge with two speed settings. For more serious overgrowth, Wild Badger’s gas trimmer doubles as a brush cutter, slicing through thick stalks while the harness helps ease back strain.
Weed killer and lawn feed: $68.15
It’s time to feed your grass and kill pesky weeds once your yard has thawed. Scotts Weed and Feed thickens your turf while ridding it of more than 50 unwanted species. When temperatures reach 60°F, simply apply the mixture to your wet grass. Jonathan Green also has a bundle of grass seed and fertilizer for especially sunny areas prone to wilting.
Grampa’s Weeder: $39.97 (11% off)
Original price: $44.99

Tree and brush trimmers: $25.99 (12% off)
Original price: $29.59
Trim fallen branches and prune bushes fast and precisely with a pair of tree trimmers. The thick steel blades cut through pieces of wood up to 1.5 inches in diameter. Longer handles give you enough power to slice through limbs without much force.
Rakes: $21.99
Every homeowner with a yard needs a rake come spring. This adjustable rake digs into small, hard-to-reach areas, but expands to 17 inches wide for open spaces. For a heavy-duty rake, this option from Fiskars features a wide head and an extra-long handle that helps keep you comfortable.
Leaf blowers: $159
A Greenworks leaf blower is a lightweight, battery-powered option best for smaller yards. It comes with a vacuum bag that sucks up leaves for easier disposal. Craftsman’s leaf blower runs for up to 24 minutes on a single charge, making it a solid choice for smaller spaces. The Worx corded leaf blower is more powerful and runs continuously, but you’ll need a long extension cord.

Leaf scoops: $29.95
Once you’ve raked your leaves into a pile, you need a simple way to pick them up. It doesn’t get much more efficient than these leaf scoops. They fit over your hands like gloves and act as giant claws that lift huge leaf piles all at once.
Tiller: $27.99
Prepping your soil for planting is important. This affordable hand tiller pairs a long, ergonomic handle for extra comfort while digging with an anti-slip foot plate that stays sturdy even in wet digging conditions. An electric tiller takes less effort on your part. You can continuously push the tiller, making quick work of larger areas.
Lawn sprinkler: $20.98
The hot summer sun does a number on your lawn and plants, but a lawn sprinkler saves you from standing in the heat for long periods. It attaches to the end of your hose and runs as long as the water is turned on.
Pole saw: $37.42
Use a pole saw to sever low-hanging branches yourself. A Fiskars telescoping pole is a lightweight option that reaches up to 8 feet high. If you have a little more strength, an electric pole saw reaches up to 12 feet. There’s a chainsaw on the end that’s removable when you need to chop branches into smaller pieces.
